0:00I've been using a strategy that almost

0:01nobody knows about and I haven't lost a

0:03single trading day in over 3 months and

0:05I've traded almost every single day and

0:07once you actually learn it, it's going

0:09to completely change the way that you

0:11look at the market. So, without further

0:12ado, let's go ahead and get into it.

0:14First off, I'm going to show you the

0:15proof of this, okay? This is all on one

0:19account. This is July of 2026 when I

0:21started the account. As you can see, uh

0:23previous month, no trades. Started on

0:25the 22nd and flawless month there at the

0:28end of July. As you can see, we got

0:30through all of August, which most

0:32traders actually fail in August. As you

0:34can see, we didn't lose a single trading

0:36day there. And now we are in September

0:39where still we are completely flawless.

0:41Today is actually the 15th of September.

0:43It's Asia session, so I just got my last

0:46trade to request a payout here. As you

0:48can see, just requested it. It's in

0:49review. And again, so you can see even

0:51more proof. You really can't fake this.

0:52These are all Lucid payouts. I made

0:54around $40,000 in payouts just with them

0:57in the last 30 days alone as well. So,

0:59without further ado, let's go ahead and

1:01look at the goals of what I'm trying to

1:02accomplish in this video for you. So,

1:04the first goal of this video I have is

1:06for you to be able to understand exactly

1:08how my PO3 strategy is actually traded,

1:11which you should be able to do at the

1:12end of this video. My second goal for

1:14this video is for you to walk out with a

1:17clear set of rules for you to go in and

1:19trade, which it also be done by the very

1:21end of this video. And third, but most

1:24importantly, the last goal is going to

1:26be for you to be able to understand how

1:28to use this to actually pass funded

1:31accounts and actually make real money

1:33with real prop firm payouts like I just

1:35showed you. So, without further ado,

1:36let's go ahead and get into the first

1:38goal of the video, which is

1:39understanding the PO3 strategy. So, the

1:41first thing we need to understand is

1:43what actually is a power of three. Well,

1:45a power of three is basically how the

1:48entire market moves. The market cannot

1:49just move straight up or straight down,

1:52okay? The market has to essentially wait

1:56for bigger players to be able to enter.

1:58And the way that happens is the market

2:00moves in stair steps, okay? So, we'll

2:02have big moves, sideways moves, little

2:04pullbacks, big moves, sideways move,

2:07little pullback, big move, okay? Now,

2:09essentially here what's happening after

2:11the big move, we have a ton of people

2:13entering here, here, here, here, here,

2:15all when the market's moving sideways.

2:17For the institutions to enter, they need

2:19liquidity to actually fill their orders,

2:21okay? So, what they need to do is stop

2:25all of those people out, form a fake

2:27out, and then the market can go in their

2:29desired direction, and then boom, they

2:30have a couple million dollars more to

2:33actually go and fill the big orders, the

2:35one that actually make moves in the

2:37market. Now, I know that might sound

2:39confusing, so we're actually going to

2:40draw it out. It's actually very simple

2:41to spot, okay? The power of three is

2:43three things. The first step is

2:46accumulation, okay? All accumulation is

2:49is when the market is moving sideways.

2:50It's not trending up, it's not trending

2:52down. We're basically bouncing in to a

2:55range, okay? Now, the second part of a

2:58power of three is called a manipulation.

3:01That is this institutional fake out.

3:04That's where all of these players here

3:07are getting stopped out, okay? And

3:08everyone thinks the market's going

3:09short, providing them even more

3:11liquidity, okay? Then, once all these

3:14stop losses are raided, this is our

3:16manipulation, then the market will start

3:19to reverse and put in step three of the

3:21power of three, which is distribution,

3:23that real market move, the strongest and

3:26quickest moves in the market, okay?

3:28That's exactly what we're trying to

3:29participate in. We don't want to

3:31participate in this or this. All we want

3:34to participate is in the distribution,

3:36which makes our strategy extremely

3:38simple. Essentially, all we have to do

3:39is wait for two things. We wait for the

3:41market to move sideways and accumulate.

3:43We wait for a fake out or a

3:45manipulation. And once price starts to

3:47reverse, and we get some sort of entry

3:49confirmation, which I'll show you in

3:51this video, boom, that's where we enter

3:53long, stop loss at the low, and target

3:55whatever high we need. That's how we can

3:57catch our play. Now, you're probably

3:58asking yourself, "Okay, Jack, this is

4:00literally just a [ __ ] drawing of a

4:02pattern on a chart. How am I supposed to

4:04trade this? This doesn't make any

4:05sense." Well, what most people actually

4:07miss in the power of three is they do

4:09trade it like a pattern. We don't. You

4:11have to actually align this with the way

4:13it's institutionally formed, which is

4:15around a higher time frame candlestick,

4:18okay? So, let me show you exactly what I

4:20mean, okay? Every power of three has a

4:23correlated

4:25higher time frame candlestick, okay? The

4:28one that we like to trade most is a

4:314-hour candlestick to a 1-minute PO3,

4:35okay? So, very simple, that's pretty

4:37much what I trade every single time I do

4:39this, okay? Now, essentially, what

4:42happens here is when a new 4-hour candle

4:45opens, or when any candlestick opens,

4:48this is what happens. Step one, the

4:49candlestick opens, obviously.

4:51Candlestick has to open, right? If we

4:54are going to be bullish, okay? If this

4:56candlestick's going to be bullish, the

4:58second thing that is going to happen,

5:00we're not going to go up here, we're not

5:01going to go up here, we're going to

5:03first form the bottom wick, okay? Before

5:07we do anything. So, that's this is what

5:10our power of three is, okay? Step one,

5:11the candlestick opens in the 1-minute,

5:13we accumulate, okay? Then, we will

5:16manipulate to put in the bottom wick of

5:19this higher time frame candlestick,

5:20okay? Once the bottom wick is put in,

5:23and again, we start to reverse, this is

5:26coming back up, the candlestick's kind

5:28of about to flip green again, boom,

5:30that's when we can get in. So, that's

5:32the concept in its simplicity, but let's

5:35take a look at an example of an actual

5:37setup here, and I'm going to give you a

5:39step-by-step checklist on how to

5:40actually enter using entry confirmations

5:43in the real chart, not just concept.

5:44Now, this doesn't happen every single

5:46time, but it can be really good for your

5:47bias. In this trade, I have a couple

5:50other things that are good for my bias,

5:51okay? We have this new week opening gap.

5:53That's a clear target for me. However,

5:56I'm on the 4-hour time frame right now.

5:58A good amount of the time when the

6:00previous 4-hour candle is bullish, okay,

6:03and we have narrative to go in the

6:05continue the same direction, this next

6:074-hour candle is also going to be

6:09bullish, okay? That happens a lot of the

6:11time. As you can see right here in this

6:13like, okay, bullish, bullish, bullish,

6:15coulda gone in 4-hour PO3s all the way

6:17there. Bearish, bearish, coulda gone in

6:19PO3s there. And again, when the market's

6:21choppy, it's a little tricky to decide

6:23this, but we have clear direction here.

6:25So, we're in this day assuming that the

6:27next candle's going to be bullish, okay?

6:29So, that's just a quick little tip here.

6:31But, let's actually get into the actual

6:33checklist and the process of this trade,

6:35okay? First thing you guys need to do is

6:38you need to go into indicators. I'll

6:39move up my chart right here. Go to

6:41indicators and look up HTF Power 3. Uh

6:44you do not have to pay for this

6:45indicator. It's not even my indicator.

6:47Go ahead and click that. What that's

6:49going to do is it makes it so you don't

6:52have to switch between the 1-minute

6:53chart and the 4-hour chart constantly,

6:55which would make this strategy

6:56confusing. What you do is you just go to

6:58settings here. Boom, put it on the

7:004-hour time frame, click okay. Then, no

7:02matter what time frame you're on, you're

7:04always going to have the current 4-hour

7:05candle next to you, which helps you

7:07align the power of three, okay? So,

7:10checklist. What we're going to do, okay?

7:12So, step one is mark out 10:00

7:16a.m.

7:17Eastern time, okay? Why do we mark out

7:1910:00 a.m. Eastern? It is 30 minutes

7:21after the market opens, and that is when

7:24a brand new 4-hour candle opens, okay?

7:27We want to see this happen basically

7:29right when a new 4-hour candle opens.

7:30So, that's the very first thing we're

7:31going to do. Market's been open 30

7:33minutes, 10:00 a.m. hits, we mark that

7:35out. That's when we start to spot the

7:37PO3. The second thing you want to look

7:39for is for accumulation of price. So, we

7:42can see right when this new 4-hour

7:44candle opens here, we're not really

7:45trending in either direction, right?

7:47We're moving sideways relative to what

7:49the market was doing. That means we are

7:51in an accumulation phase. Usually, I

7:54just like to mark this out with a green

7:56box here. Step two, you want to look for

7:58the nearest 15-minute fair value gap

8:02closest to price here, okay? So, in this

8:05scenario, I'm going long, right? What am

8:07I automatically doing? I'm going on to

8:09the 15-minute chart and I can very

8:11clearly see, great, there is a 15-minute

8:14fair value gap here. What I'm going to

8:15do is I'm going to mark that out. That's

8:17where I want price to tap into, okay?

8:20When we talk about manipulation,

8:22something you guys need to understand is

8:24you need narrative for the manipulation.

8:26You don't want to pattern trade the

8:28power of three, okay? Why would price

8:31reverse somewhere? Oh, this is the

8:32nearest 15-minute gap, the nearest

8:34pocket of liquidity, okay? If buyers are

8:37going to remain in control, they're not

8:39going to let price push past this pocket

8:42of liquidity. They're actually going to

8:43have more entries out of it, okay? So,

8:46that's what we're looking at, nearest

8:4715-minute gap. If scenario happens where

8:50you're like, okay, you know, this one

8:52had a long wick, whatever, this one had

8:54a long wick, you know, there's no

8:5615-minute gap, then you would drop down

8:58to the 5-minute chart, occasionally the

9:001-hour or, you know, the 1-minute if

9:02there's no 5 or 15, but generally, 5 or

9:0415 is going to be your best bet here,

9:07okay? Now, what you need to do is go

9:08back to the 1-minute time frame. So, now

9:11what you want to see is for price to tap

9:13into this 15-minute gap, okay? And not

9:16only that, but also form the low of the

9:21new 4-hour candlestick, right? If this

9:23tap into the 15-minute gap is like way

9:26up here and it's not putting in the low

9:28of the 4-hour candle,

9:30then again, that would just be a pattern

9:32trade. We're trying to align this with a

9:33high time frame candlestick, okay? But

9:35anyways, now we're thinking, okay, where

9:38do we actually enter? How do we know

9:39this is the bottom? How do we know price

9:41is about to reverse and begin our

9:43distribution?" And step three we

9:45covered, which is manipulating into the

9:46gap, but step four of this entry

9:49checklist is called order flow

9:51confirmation, okay? That means we want

9:53to see a fair value gap disrespected on

9:56the bearish side of the market, and then

9:58a new fair value gap on the 1-minute

10:00time frame respected in the direction of

10:03your bias, okay? Which we're going to

10:05take a look at right now. That's

10:06basically the last thing, and then the

10:08fifth part of the checklist is setting

10:10your take profit and your stop loss,

10:11which will also do, okay? So, a lot of

10:14people will see this, "Okay, it's

10:16flipping green. I'm ready to get in,

10:18okay?"

10:19Let's even wait a little bit longer.

10:22Okay, great. We got a fair value gap

10:25inversion right here, right? We

10:26disrespected a fair value gap. Let's

10:28wait a little longer. Oh, great. We even

10:31got an inversion here, okay? So, most

10:33people are going to see, "Okay, I have a

10:35VG, boom, I'm ready to get in." But, as

10:38you can see, there is actually no

10:401-minute bullish gap on the 1-minute

10:43time frame formed after we tapped into

10:45that 15-minute gap, which is what we're

10:47looking for. So, what do we do? Is all

10:50we're doing is waiting for that exact

10:52thing to happen, okay? So, right here,

10:56we form a 1-minute fair value gap, okay?

11:00There's essentially two here. We're

11:01going to basically just mark them out

11:04both here, all this one gap. Now, what

11:06we want to see is for price to tap into

11:08this 1-minute gap and for it to get

11:10respected, meaning we push back out of

11:12it. We do not close back down below it,

11:14okay? So, as you can see here, I'm

11:16actually still not ready to enter this

11:17position because we just disrespected

11:20these bullish gaps. So, again, we need

11:22to wait for new bullish gaps to form,

11:24get respected, and then we can enter.

11:27So, as you can see, I'm waiting for a

11:29gap to get respected, meaning we don't

11:31inverse it on the bull side of things,

11:33and then see a reversal out of it, okay?

11:35So, boom, right here, reversal out of

11:38that gap, okay? Safe stop loss can be

11:41all the way at that 4-hour low. If you

11:44have a 1:1 to the accumulation highs,

11:46you can target it for this trade.

11:48Generally, I like to be anywhere in

11:51between a 1:1 or a 1:2 on this strategy.

11:55And we can watch this play out pretty

11:57quickly right here. Now, all in all, if

11:59you want to screenshot this, here's the

12:01entry checklist. As you can see, final

12:03step is actually going to be five here.

12:06Let's type that in for you guys right

12:07here, where you have your stop loss at

12:09the 4-hour manipulation low. Now, take

12:12profit is going to have to be optimized

12:14based on the prop firm balance you have

12:17and the actual prop firm you're trading

12:19on, which leads me into the third and

12:21final goal of this video. How do you

12:22actually pass funded accounts with this

12:24strategy and make a [ __ ] load of money

12:27with prop firm payouts using this? And

12:29very importantly, before I start this

12:30section of the video, I'm showing you

12:32that this isn't just me doing this,

12:34okay? This is one of my one-on-one

12:35mentorship students, Alan, okay? This is

12:37on August 4th, he got his very ever

12:40first payout of prop firms after trading

12:42for 10 years and trading prop firms for

12:442 years, okay? $1,500 payout with Apex.

12:47Keep in eye on the date, okay? 8/4. It

12:49is literally only 15 days later, 2 weeks

12:52later after that, he got three more Apex

12:55payouts here, and he had 10K in payouts

12:58in total from Apex and Blue Sky, okay?

13:00That's nothing to 10K in payouts in

13:02literally 2 weeks just by following the

13:05system I'm about to show you about. And

13:07again, it doesn't just stop there.

13:08Literally a couple days ago, he sent me

13:09a $5,400 payout from Lucid, and he

13:13actually got nine more Apex payouts, so

13:15he's well over 20K in payouts in just

13:17under 3 weeks now. So, let's go ahead

13:19and to show you exactly what I'm talking

13:21about. In my mentorship, I literally

13:23build every single student an exact prop

13:25firm portfolio. I tell them what

13:27accounts to trade when. They master not

13:29only the strategy, but the prop firm

13:31math that helps keep them taking

13:33consistent payouts. Because most of you

13:35just have this strategy piece of the

13:37puzzle and you're still just blowing

13:39accounts every single week. So, if you

13:40are interested in applying and you're

13:42really committed to becoming a full-time

13:43prop firm trader, you can go ahead and

13:45click the first link in the description,

13:47apply, we'll see if you're a good fit.

13:49But, I do want to move on to the third

13:52goal of this video, which is how the

13:54[ __ ] did I get 3 months of P&L on one of

13:57my funded accounts at a 100% win rate

14:00trading almost every single day with

14:01this. Now, I want to show you guys a

14:03very important sheet, which is the risk

14:05to reward and win rate cheat sheet,

14:07okay? Basically, what this sheet is is

14:09it tells you what your win rate should

14:11be based on what risk to reward that you

14:13trade, okay? So, for example, if you're

14:16trading a 1:4 risk to reward, okay, you

14:20need to be over a 20% win rate to be

14:22profitable, okay? If you're trading a

14:241:5, you could lose 80% of your trades

14:27and still be profitable. However, if you

14:29are trading a 1:1, then generally, you

14:33need a much higher win rate to be

14:35profitable, okay? But, with this chart,

14:37there's also a very easy statistical

14:40assumption, okay? If you are risking

14:431:1, then your win rate is automatically

14:45going to be higher. Doesn't matter what

14:47edge you have on the charts, okay? Now,

14:49there's one other thing that we assume

14:51with risk to reward, okay? The lower

14:53your risk to reward is, automatically

14:55higher your win rate's going to be,

14:56okay? That is statistical fact, okay? It

15:00does not matter if you trade order flow,

15:02ICT, support resistance, or complete and

15:04utter patterns. If your risk to reward

15:07is lower, your win rate is automatically

15:09statistically higher, okay? So, let's

15:12talk risk math for a second here, okay?

15:14On majority of prop firms, what I like

15:16to do is I like to get to the max

15:19balance that I can take take payout,

15:20which is max balance before my winning

15:23day. So, I'll make $3,400

15:25if my payout target is $4,000. And then,

15:27the remaining four winning days I need

15:29are only $150 get me there, okay? So,

15:33essentially, I will trade a, you know,

15:36relatively average risk-to-reward.

15:38Basically, you know, depends on the

15:40trade, right? But, for these trades, I'm

15:42trading normally. Could be a one-to-one,

15:44could be a one-to-two, could be a

15:46one-to-four risk-to-reward, okay? On my

15:48winning days, where I only need $150,

15:51I take my risk-to-reward down, okay? I

15:54take it down so far where I actually

15:58take a negative risk-to-reward, okay?

16:01So, if I have a day where I already have

16:04all of my buffers built up, and as you

16:06can see, I went on a pretty good winning

16:08streak here, so I have like, what, an

16:09$8,000 buffer at this point, I'm going

16:12to automatically just

16:13lower my risk-to-reward, okay? To

16:16increase my win rate, because that's all

16:17I'm focused on is getting 150 winning

16:19days, okay? Now, I still set a daily

16:21loss limit for myself, but what that

16:23means is anytime I see a setup and I

16:25only need a $150 winning day,

16:27occasionally, I might go negative on my

16:28risk-to-reward. I might go as negative

16:30as 0.5, okay? Usually, it's anywhere

16:34between a one-to-one to a 0.5, sometimes

16:38occasionally as low as a 0.3. I'd say

16:40pretty rarely. Usually, it's anywhere in

16:43between a half R and a one R. And that's

16:46why my win rate has been so powerful

16:49with these accounts, because as you can

16:50see,

16:51once I built up this balance, you know,

16:53I'll pat myself on the back, fantastic

16:56streak right here, got my winning days

16:59there. But, once I built up this pretty

17:01big buffer, as you can see, all I needed

17:03was these winning days. So, I just

17:05lowered my risk-to-reward, and from

17:07then, it's been pretty smooth and pretty

17:10easy to just basically win almost every

17:12single day I'm trading. Now, that being

17:13said, I don't trade all of my prop firm

17:15accounts at once. I don't copy trade

17:17everything. I group my accounts, okay? I

17:19come from a wealth management and

17:21financial planning degree background,

17:23okay? I treat prop firms like a true

17:25portfolio. I would not put all my money

17:27into one penny stock if I saw it was

17:30doing good and I had a 500k portfolio.

17:32No, you'd probably want to spread it

17:33out, right? That's exactly the way that

17:35I operate with prop firms. So, hopefully

17:37this video clarified a lot for you with

17:39strategy, how you can kind of diversify

17:41your risk reward based on what your

17:43goals are. If you do want to learn more
